The Bay Area has long been a vibrant hotbed for political and artistic revolution. Revolutionary trendsetting extends to the Bays Hip Hop community where local musical artists, such as Digital Underground, 2Pac, Mac Dre, Hieroglyphics, E-40, and others, have spearheaded their musical careers from underground streets to mainstream high rises.
With the recent resurgence of West Coast Hip Hop, the Bays underground scene is still as vibrant as ever with up-and-coming talent. One such artist is DJ/Producer/MC SoloFlexx, whose raw energy, revitalizing and melodic beats, turntable terror, versatility, and seasoned experience serve as an antidote for formulaic stagnation. Fashioning his own authentic sound works not only to highlight his raw energy, and beat skills, but also leaves the listener with more than just a nostalgic feel.PREVIOUS PROJECTS:SoloFlexx has dedicated more than half of his life to the creation and promotion of music.
